Coloured bath resurfacing for Summerseat homes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Summerseat. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Summerseat

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit

FAQs for Summerseat

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BL9 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
